DeVotchKa have quietly become one of America's most celebrated bands, creating a wholly unique sound informed by Eastern European, Southwestern, South American, and American punk and folk roots. The Denver based Multi-instrumentalist four piece trade off on violin, accordion, acoustic bass, sousaphone, theremin, piano, drums, guitars, and more - backing the other-worldly vocals of Nick Urata. Following the critically hailed 2004 self-release How it ends, DeVotchKa have focused their inimitatable sensibility on this selection of diverse covers - songs by friends and inspirations.
